Description

The Fonseca No.1 Cigar measures 6 3/8 inches with a 43 ring gauge, crafted with tobacco from Cuba's Vuelta Abajo region. Its Lonsdale shape features a signature tissue paper wrapper that preserves the cigar's condition until consumption. The construction ensures adequate ventilation and consistent burn, emphasizing cedar and pepper notes through balanced rolling techniques.

Technical Specifications

  • Format: Lonsdale
  • Length: 6 3/8 inches (162mm)
  • Ring Gauge: 43
  • Wrapper: Cuban-seed tobacco
  • Strength: Mild to medium-bodied

The Fonseca No.1 delivers sequential flavor transitions beginning with cedar and hay, followed by cocoa and roasted nut undertones. A faint white pepper sensation emerges mid-smoke, sustained by the cigar's slow combustion rate. The tissue-wrapped design minimizes handling damage while allowing gradual aroma development.

Flavor Profile

  • Primary notes: Cedar, dried grass
  • Secondary elements: Cocoa powder, almond
  • Finish: Mineral-driven spice

This elongated format provides 60-75 minutes of smoking time, suited for daytime use or introductory cigar sessions. The Fonseca No.1 employs a lighter blend than typical Cuban vitolas, prioritizing combustion consistency over intensity. Its ash maintains structural integrity for 1.5-2 inch segments before shedding.
